Who?

They are all winners.

And yet here you are, not only reading the AFLW Grand Final thread but also posting in it.

Looked like she kicked it well before the siren sounded and that it was bouncing Petracca-like towards the goals. Not that it makes a difference to the result, but my understanding is that any score under those circumstances would count.

Looks to be above Everage.

No surprises from 'The Age' with their take on likely draftees. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/ultimate-afl-draft-preview-which-players-are-being-looked-at-20221125-p5c18k.html

He's a funny old fellow is Humphrey.

A cold beer might help to steer you towards the solution, @Deemania since 56. I'd recommend this pub.

There's a bit of Demons talk buried near the bottom of this article. It's a little ambiguous but I think the suggestion is that other clubs believe that we're keen on defender Jakob Ryan who is from South Australia. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/star-gaelic-footballer-to-strengthen-the-cats-20221125-p5c19c.html

Just tried to send my PM and it's telling me that Mazer Rackham can't receive messages. Like @La Dee-vina Comedia, I am confident I know the answer and would proffer R. Grinter, R. Richards and N. Smith as another example.

I knew that team reminded me of something, Mr. Rackham. This was my attempt from last year. Behold the very colourful Rainbow Raiders! I hope you like the centreline tribute to our disco/clash jumper.

Is that a red Herring?

33%?

I'd vote for Iggy Pop if he stood for election. He's had a lot of experience working with Stooges.

I'd bet that Stevie would also like to see that.

I like the sound of this Hairy Lemmy kid.

Third place and the associated Third Round Draft Pick has been snaffled by @La Dee-vina Comedia, thereby just pipping @Mazer Rackham who will have to settle for a Rookie Draft Selection. As hinted at in various ways, the players in my team all share a surname with currently listed AFLW players. I believe that @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew has another teaser up his sleeve and hereby pass the baton his way. That AFLW team if anybody is interested is as follows. Some surnames are shared by multiple women, of course. Oddly, there is both a Tarni Brown and a Tarni White!

Well done to @layzie for also solving the mystery. Enjoy your Late Second Round Draft Pick!

Quick update before I head out for a few hours. @Lucifers Hero has the correct answer and, for her efforts, wins a Top Ten Draft Pick. Spend it wisely, Luci! It would be good to see more female participants. Look closely at the OP - there is a clue there.

My "topical" reference got a bite, but the answer is nothing to do with the World Cup or anything international.

Have you run this idea past Rivers?

Nobody's playing so I'm taking the view That it's time for me to provide a clue. The weather ain't tropical But the answer is topical And now the rest is up to you.

Just the one incorrect response so far that each player's name contains a rarely used letter. The answer has nothing to do with spelling or matters alphabetical. I'll provide a clue in a couple of hours if necessary.

Unlike Wayne Carey!
